Ingredients for Rice Pancakes
½ cup (90g) soft rice
½ cup (60g) boiled rice
½ teaspoon yeast
1 small onion
1 Egg
½ tin Peak Milk
Sugar (to taste)
2 pinches of salt
Vegetable oil: for frying
Before you make Rice Pancakes
Soak the soft rice with warm water over night or for at least 8 hours.
Boil some rice that will be equivalent to cup boiled rice. I normally use left over boiled white rice for this.
Cut the onions into tiny pieces.
Directions
Add all the ingredients: the soaked rice, cooked rice, diced onions, salt, sugar, yeast, egg and Peak Milk into a blender.
Add just enough water to help the blades of your blender move.
Blend till smooth.
Pour into a bowl.
Cover the bowl, leave it in a warm place for about 30 minutes.
Set a frying pan on the stove, preferably a non-stick frying pan.
Pour a small amount of vegetable oil into the pan.
Once hot, pour some batter into the pan making sure it is as thin as possible.
Fry on medium heat till the top cakes and the underside is golden.
Flip to fry the other side till light brown.
